When I’m not wearing my watches…

The AMOLED screen of the Forerunner 265 is quite impressive. My previous Forerunner 255’s heartrate monitor died in less than 8 months of ownership. T...

I have no idea. It looks like the Ultra is more superior but with a serious price tag. It will probablt be obsolete in a couple years with all the software updates. 😂 I only use my Garmin when I exercise because it has a feature for training called Garmin Coach. It suggests certain types of runs based on how you slept, how well you slept, your resting heartrate and training readiness.

Of course not. I don’t wear it with a suit. Never. 😂 It’s good to have for exercise. You can’t enjoy or buy nice watches if your health is compromised or even work to save up for it. 😜

commented on SO Disappointed (Laco Aachen 42) ·

I almost bought a Laco Aachen but I couldn’t get myself to spend $400 for such mediocre movement and also the design of it. At most this watch would be better priced at $300 or less. I bought an Orient with a Type B dial instead for less $200. Noisy rotor but it is to be expected.

Indeed it does! Now I have to look at that brand.

commented on Should I sell my Speedmaster for a Seamaster? ·

Seamaster all the way. I have a one chrono in my collection and yet I have zero use for the complications only that I like the design. 😂I’m even thinking about selling it. For me, I like watches that are time or time and date only. Maybe I’m a kinda OCD and like my dial quite clean and uncluttered and not have a lot of literature either.
